Program Description

Our post-degree Bachelor of Education takes a cross-disciplinary approach to teaching and learning while emphasizing inclusionary teaching approaches. We offer concentrations in elementary (K-5), secondary (6-12), or French second-language teaching through cooperative learning and teamwork, along with practical teaching techniques.

Our 11-month program includes two field placements in different schools and at different grade levels. This offers opportunities to put theory into practice and will prepare you for a rewarding career in education.

About the School

We believe smaller is better. Our small size is the reason we are able to give each one of our students a big university experience full of opportunity.

Located in Fredericton, New Brunswick, St. Thomas University is a small, primarily undergraduate university dedicated to excellence in liberal arts education.

University is an exciting time. It’s a time for personal and intellectual growth. It's an opportunity for students to learn more about the world, and about themselves. New interests, new friends, and new experiences help take students into the next chapter of their lives.

This time can always present challenges, and that’s why we are committed to providing a learning environment second to none, academic and personal support for when it’s needed, and opportunities that provide students the experiences they need to reach their academic and professional goals.

Classes – Every single class is small and intimate. Capped at 60 students, our average class size is only 26 students, and upper-year classes are even smaller. Classes are discussion and debate based, and professors are able to get to know their students and offer individualized attention. 99% of our full-time faculty have their Ph.D. or highest degrees in their fields.

Teaching Excellence – 91% of first-year students rate their experience as excellent or good. One reason is that the emphasis on teaching, academic challenge, and developing new thinking skills are rated among the highest in Canada.

Financial Aid – The university dedicates $1.8 million to student financial aid every year. With more than 40 different kinds of scholarships and bursaries available, there are many ways to help offset tuition costs.

Support – Our Student Services Department supports students every step of the way. Offering resources for academic support, career planning, stress management, and more, students have a team of people to help them through their time at university.

Opportunities – A university degree is about more than just attending class. Our students attend national conferences, study abroad, publish their research and work on professional research with professors. They take on leadership roles in the Students' Union and Residence Life, work part-time jobs on campus, and intern and volunteer throughout the city.
